I officially live in Blackburn, and I get a warm welcome in Accy, and I prefer it much more than Blackburn.

Its smaller and I find smaller places are better. especialy for bringing up kids. I ahve lived in blackburn and for the most part Preston and Accy beats both easy.

Me too. Lived in Blackburn for 8 years, was glad to come home to Accy. Was in Blackburn the other day. It just doesn't have Accy's friendly atmosphere.

And never mind our bustation, their set up's a nightmare

When I lived in Black burn (25 yrs ago for maybe 2 or 3 years) It used to stink in the town center on a hot day..of hops or whatever the breweries used.

I remember that!
Also used to live in Little Harwood further up than the Matthew Brown brewery, it was the same up there. Think that one's now closed though, not sure.   And Thwaites in the centre doesn't seem anywhere near as bad, but you can still smell it sometimes.

We lived in Blackburn for a while. Stayed with friends just before move here.
It`s a nasty smelly hole that thinks erecting stupid statues a priority over much needed hospital beds.

When I left home at 16 I lived all over the country (Even on the wrong side of the Pennines).  In seven years my accent had changed that much that people thought I was a scouser.
